Two major prerequisites for streamlining branch operations are measurement and analysis. There is an old – but true – saying:
You can only manage what you measure.
As Kerim Tumay of Kiran Analytics recently pointed out in a recent article: “In order to improve operational efficiency, you need to have an unbiased, detailed view of customer arrivals, wait times, and branch workflows, as well as how associates are spending their time on both serving customers and completing non-customer-facing activities.”
Key Takeaway: One of the easiest and best ways to streamline your members’ lobby experience is to introduce a robust visitor management system. Better Lobby captures a variety of metrics that are important to management – in short, it measures “hard to measure” metrics that help your CU improve sales and member service, while lowering overall cost-of-service.
